<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ArtDeco, post: 24883622, member: 119259&quot;]I purchased a coin on VCoins from a dealer named Athena Numismatics that seems to be based in Amherstburg, ONTARIO Canada. Its been more than a week already and I have not gotten a shipment email yet. I&#039;ve asked the dealer about whether the coin has shipped yet or not but I get no response.</p><p>Here is the coin,</p><p><img src="https://images.vcoins.com/product_image/18/C/cM6WB7ppoY5m2iMGSFr94fNYoi8EKd.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Alexander III</p><p>AR Drachm&nbsp;&nbsp; 4.04 grams</p><p>Miletus mint circa 325-323</p><p>Price 2088</p><p>Lifetime Issue</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ve did some reading online regarding Athena Numismatics and overall the reviews have been negative. On his silver coins, he seems to have put some chemical, naval jelly or done some procedure that puts blueish toning on the coins which looks totally hideous and artificial.</p><p>My original plan was to remove that artificial toning, remove the deposits on the coin and retone the coin natrually. But based on all the bad feedback he has gotten over the years, should I be worried that I might not even receive the coin? Has anyone ever run into this issue with a dealer on VCoins?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
